I have been meaning to blog about this fantastic shoot for about a month now, and I thought while I have escaped to Plymouth for a week of relaxing with my brother then I should sit and catch up on my blog, and that’s what I’m doing whilst trying not to get distracted with shabby chic sites 
Cold & Sea Bound
The team for a day of beauty and bridal consisted of Photographer Phil Drinkwater, Assistant Tim Johnson, Hair stylist Martin Bland, Model Sophie Suri and me on charge of makeup brushes
We were shooting three different looks, a creative beauty set, a commercial fashion set and then the bridal gowns, which were stunning and luckily fit Sophie perfectly and because the creative beauty would take the longest we decided to shoot in the studio for the first half of the day and get the beauty set done first and then move onto the commercial looks. Then after dinner we were to brave the outdoors and shoot the bridal set on the beach
Hair Touchups
While we were shooting at X2 Studio in Blackpool the weather outside was the best we could have hoped for, it was still freezing and a little bit windy outside but the sun was shining and there was not a raindrop in the sky but by mid afternoon, just as the final touches to the bridal makeup and hair were over it started to drizzle a little and the wind picked up. There was no room to cancel this set so we jumped into our cars and headed towards St.Annes, hoping that the rain would stop and it would warm up a little….
The rain did stop thankfully but judging by the goosebumps on my arms it did not get any warmer, in fact I think the wind picked up with ever step we took on the beach, it was utterly freezing, and Sophie, wearing nothing but a wedding dress had to skip through the freezing Irish Sea looking carefree and happy for the photographs. Of course I was helpful and held Sophies warm layers for her while we shot, around my body *laughs*
I only have one picture from this set so far, which is why I have hung off posting this blog but hopefully I will have some more pictures from the day to share soon!
